Are you planning to teach and want experience with essential syllabus characteristics? Your course syllabus can be a powerful tool that can effectively establish classroom norms\, performance expectations and foster student engagement. Research has shown that the tone\, content and design of a course syllabus can directly affect students’ perception of instruction\, the choice to pursue a subsequent major\, and decision to engage with faculty outside of the classroom. \n  \n  \nUsing research and established guidelines\, we will: \n\nSelf-assess a syllabus for components of an inclusive\, engaging\, and informative syllabus that supports student success.\nIdentify language and design elements that promote equity\, belonging\, and growth mindset.\nDiscuss strategies to help your students read and engage with the syllabus.\n\n  \nAttendees are asked to bring a paper copy of a syllabus to revise and annotate during the workshop.  It can be from a course you are teaching\, plan to teach or are currently taking. \n  \nSpace may be limited! \n  URL:/citl/event/for-graduate-students-creating-an-inclusive-syllabus/ LOCATION:Fernald Hall CATEGORIES:Grad Development,Teaching GEO:42.388543;-72.522401 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20241016T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20241016T133000 DTSTAMP:20260611T084521 CREATED:20240507T184724Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240913T164402Z UID:10001373-1729080000-1729085400@umaine.edu SUMMARY:Graduate Teaching Academy DESCRIPTION:The Graduate Teaching Academy (GTA) is a semester-long learning community for those interested in preparing for careers that involve teaching\, inside and outside of academia.
